Re: Gosu IntelliJ IDEA 11 plugin v2.0 released!

[Carson Gross]

Next on my weekend list is figuring out how to get Ronin-to-Heroku deployment working.

Shouldn't be hard, they are pretty flexible.  I'll let you know.

Cheers,
Carson

This is a great step forward for Gosu.   Congratulations guys!

Now we just need to get Heroku to offer hosting for Gosu-built
programs, or Ronin web-apps.

Then Gosu would completely rock the world.

Let me know.  Box has contacts at Heroku, and I can possibly get you introduced to some of the right people to make it happen.  

[Carson Gross]

I don't think it will take much:

  http://blog.heroku.com/archives/2011/8/24/java/

I think all you'll need to do is update the pom to have that maven-dependency-plugin, and then a Procfile something like:

  java -cp target/classes:target/dependency/* ronin.DevServer

And... well, you might be good to go.  I'm going out drinking, but if someone else wants to give it a shot...  If not, I'll give it a whirl tomorrow.

That'd be hot.  I love Heroku.

Cheers,

Carson

Well I'll be damned:

I'll throw up a HOWTO tomorrow.

Just for fun:

This is the app I was demoing in my screencast.

Alright, if anything warrants a beer, it's that.

Wow... well I just rough-drafted a blog entry about using Node.js on Heroku to show off Box's WebHooks.  

Looks like I need to play around with making a Gosu example on Heroku... I wonder if I can do it in less code than node.js?

Nice job guy!

[Carson Gross]

We should clean up roblog and get it up and hosted on heroku as a demo app.

And, by "we", I mean "you".

;)

Hell, we should even be *using* roblog for a blog off of gosu-lang.org.  

Cheers,
Carson
